Shaman or healer's globular-shaped rattle features an owl on the front, its beak pronounced and its wings and legs carved in low relief; and on the reverse, another beaked creature, with legs and two-toed claws. Pins of native copper secure the handle, and sinew ties hold the rattle closed; black and red paint accents the carved imagery. (Interior likely holds pebbles, beads or lead shot.)
Three small circular bells (parts a-c), a metal loop (part d) and a flat metal disc (part e). The bell (part a) is the largest of the three bells. The top section below the loop appears to have concentric circles and vertical lines. The bell (part b) is medium-sized, and features a face design on one side, and a loop at the top. The bell (part c) is very small, has a loop at the top. The metal loop (part d) is a thin piece of metal, bent into a circular shape. The flat metal disc (part e) has rough edges, and two small holes at the top.

One gilded disc with two suspension holes near rim. Flat, thin, round disc with a round central protrusion, surrounded by a repousse band of four profile heads with two tassels each. Some corrossion, but most of the surface appears to be scraped clean.
